July 2013 notes.

Model 111 - 29/07/2013
Magnet Configuration: Step IV Solenoid Mode - 240MeV/c - No return yoke. This model includes an approximate outline of the substation with iron mass represented in the outer skin -5300kg. Model Element Type = Linear. Surface Element Type = Quadratic.
MODEL FAILED TO SOLVE DUE TO COMPUTER CRASH.

Sub Station 02 Model 02 - 27/07/2013
Sub Station 02 Sub Model 02 op3 - solution file.
Sub Station 02 Sub Model 02 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 2h 15m.
As model 01 but with some very slight meshing changes to ease transition to metal skin.

Sub Station 02 Model 01 - 27/07/2013
Sub Station 02 Sub Model 01 op3 - solution file.
Sub Station 02 Sub Model 01 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 2h 13m.
This is a simple cuboid in an external 5 gauss field but has multiple layers in metal skin.

Sub Station Model 08 - 25/07/2013
Sub Station Sub Model 08 op3 - solution file.
Sub Station Sub Model 08 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 7h 4m.
As model 07 but this has some holes in the front panel that approximates the location of the equipment.

Sub Station Model 07 - 21/07/2013
Sub Station Sub Model 07 op3 - solution file.
Sub Station Sub Model 07 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 7h 48m.
The external field was rotated by 90 degrees as this was found to more closely match that seen in model 91.

Model 101 - 17/07/2013
test model 101 op3 - solution file.
test model 101 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 3 hour 52 mins.
Magnet Configuration: Step IV Solenoid Mode - 240MeV/c - No return yoke.
All elements set to Linear.

Model 100 - 17/07/2013
test model 100 op3 - solution file.
test model 100 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 38 mins!.
Magnet Configuration: Step IV Solenoid Mode - 240MeV/c - No return yoke.
Note All BH curves set to Air. All elements set to Linear.

Shield Wall Model 12 - 18/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 12 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 12 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 16h 49m
7 x 3 panels with a 1 mm gap but with all elements set to Linear.

Shield Wall Model 11 - 17/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 11 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 11 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 3 hours 28 mins
As model 04 but all elements set to Linear.

Shield Wall Model 10 - 17/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 10 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 10 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 1hour 3mins!
As model 04 but all BH curves set to Air. All elements set to Linear.

Shield Wall Model 06 - 11/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 06 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 06 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 45 hours
As model 04 but with a 1.5mm plate gap between the plates and I beams.

Shield Wall Model 05 - 09/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 05 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 05 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 32 hours
As model 04 but with steel sheets made homogenous and I beams run as Air. (So should be same mesh as model 04)

Shield Wall Model 04 - 06/07/2013
Shield Wall Sub Model 04 op3 - solution file.
Shield Wall Sub Model 04 - associated build files.
Solve Time = 64 hours
2x3 panels - Geometry Corrected - Reduction in number of layers in plates. No plate gap. All boundaries now 'Tangential Magnetic'. Symmetry in the model is now correct.

Shield Wall Model 03 - 03/07/2013
Solve Time = xx hours
Test Model (2x4 panels) - Geometry Guessed - Reduction in number of layers in plates. No plate gap. Test Model. All boundaries now 'Tangential Magnetic' (as they should have been!). Model was not run to completion.

Shield Wall Model 02 - 01/07/2013
Solve Time = 72 hours
Test Model (2x3 panels) - Geometry Guessed - Test Model - Do not use.

A Shield Wall Model 01 was not run.
